World Cup Cricket 2007: Bangladesh has more confidence

After impressing with the bat, Bangladesh's Hasan proved he is capable as an all-rounder. He took the wickets of Billcliff and Canada's captain John Davison to finish with figures of two for 36 from 10 overs.

Early on, it looked like Canada might repeat their surprise 2003 World Cup victory over Bangladesh when they reduced the favourites to 30 for three.

The pick of their bowlers was veteran Anderson Cummins who finished with figures of three for 60 from 10 overs. Cummins proved that he has a lot to offer in the World Cup this month.

Bangladesh will be pleased with the way that their middle-order recovered from a disappointing start, Habibul Bashar and Mohammad Ashraful both made quick-fire half centuries.

The tournament win should give Bangladesh confidence. They face India, Sri Lanka and the side who finished bottom of this tournament, Bangladesh in the World Cup group stage.
